Our Roots

In 1958, when our founder Alan Horwitz observed a crowd of
students waiting in line for housing at the University of
Pennsylvania, his entrepreneurial spirit ignited and Campus
Apartments was born.

Recognizing that most landlords in the area were undermanaging
their properties, he decided to ‘professionalize the business’ and
differentiate his product by offering a higher standard of living
that not only appealed to students, but their parents as well. Over
the next several decades, Mr. Horwitz went on to transform the
landscape of Philadelphia’s University City neighborhood.

In the mid-90s, a new entrepreneurial spirit was infused into
the Company, as the leadership team set its focus on expanding the
Company's holdings to other college and university markets. Over
the next decade, Campus Apartments helped to "institutionalize" the
student housing sector, successfully growing its footprint through
creative deal structures and innovative public private
partnerships.

Today, Campus Apartments has grown into one of the nation’s
largest providers of student housing and one of our industry’s most
trusted and respected names. We continue to redefine the college
living experience, and credit our founder for crafting our
student-focused management style and sowing the seeds for our
company mantra, “Smart. Living.”
